Who am I?
My name is Dylan and I work as a Tantra masseur, Reiki master and coach. I strive to contribute to a world full of freedom, authenticity and loving connections. I do this through Tantra massages, Reiki sessions, coaching and men’s circles.
My Story:
I was always a quiet, introverted boy who struggled with self-expression. As a child I hardly spoke and found every social interaction scary. As I got older, social interactions started to get less scary, but expressing myself fully and showing my authentic self remained difficult.
This was something I wanted to change.
I realised that I could choose to keep all my thoughts, feelings, and creativity to myself, but that would lead to a less meaningful life I believe that self-expression leads to interaction with my environment, which in turn creates experiences, adventure and an embracing of everything that life has to offer.
I made the choice to work on this. I traveled, took dance lessons (dancing was one of my biggest insecurities!), went to retreats and attended multiple awareness courses and trainings. All this has helped me get closer to my authentic self, embrace life and truly show myself.
My Experience
My path of awareness began in 2014 when I started studying philosophy at Tilburg University. I came into contact with many different visions about the world and life. I also came into contact with Eastern philosophy. This appealed to me because it is practical and applicable in everyday life. In 2017 I made a trip to Southeast Asia and eventually ended up at the Vagabond Temple in Cambodia, where I immersed myself for several months in meditation, yoga and Reiki. In 2019 I went back there again for 3 months for further exploration.
Around this time, I completed my philosophy education and I also followed a coaching training. In the summer of 2019 I first came into contact with Tantra when I met Johan Raaimakers from Tantra-Atma. In the years that followed, I participated in several workshops and training sessions with Johan, and Tantra has become a real passion of mine.
Through these paths I learned how to go on a discovery journey in one’s own inner world and to find balance on a physical, emotional and spiritual level. In addition, I was able to experience the profound effect of massages and energy work, and I would like to share this with the world!
